Person:Reuben Gunn (2)

Only circumstantial evidence this is John's son. Reuben Gunn was living in Pittsfield, Berkshire County, Massachusetts in the 1790 Census.

The following might refer to this Reuben Gunn, but more probably to Reuben Gunn (b. 1708): "The first road in Pittsfield was 'chopped' through native forests from Park Square to the present House of Mercy Hospital and thence through Waconah Street over the old highway to Hancock. The first town meeting was held in 1761 at Deacon Stephen Crofoot's on Elm Street: the selectmen elected were David Bush, William Williams, Josiah Wright; constable, Jacob Ensign; wardens, Solomon Deming and David Noble; fence-viewers, William Francis, Nath'I Fairfield; deer-reeves, John Remington and Reuben Gunn."
